Fratelli (Brothers) is a story created from the heart of the Italian traditions and is based on a struggle to keep a family bond alive. Three brothers (Sal, Alessio, and Gigi) quickly learn the weight of life without a proper upbringing. Torn apart by three different lifestyles, these three brothers are close and at times also far apart as they continue their quest for survival.
Fratelli (Brothers)
addresses the many clichés and stereotypes of the Italian culture, clarifying for non-Italians the traditional upbringings. This original show was partly traditional theatre, combined with certain aspects of physical based theatre.
(Ages 16+
